Which physical component is distributed among multiple virtual machines running on the same hypervisor?

Hardware resources, such as CPU, memory, and I/O, are distributed among multiple virtual machines (VMs) running on the same hypervisor. The hypervisor manages and allocates these physical resources to each VM, creating the illusion that each VM has dedicated hardware. External storage, while often used with virtualized environments, is typically accessed by VMs as a shared resource, but the storage itself is not distributed among the VMs in the same way that CPU cycles or memory blocks are. Network interfaces are physical components, but each VM usually gets a virtual network interface, which maps to one or more shared physical network interfaces, rather than the physical interface itself being distributed. A backplane network is a high-speed internal connection within a device (like a server chassis), not a component directly distributed to individual VMs.
